How Does Ice Right Work?
» Sports Injuries » When You Are Injured » Cold Therapy »
When the Ice Right wrap is applied to an injury such as a strain or sprain, the combination of ice + compression rapidly cools the injured tissue. This effective combination not only relieves pain but also helps to prevent secondary swelling of already damaged tissue. This secondary swelling is the primary cause of extended recovery times.
Clinically Proven Treatment Protocol
» RICES » Clinical Studies » Purchase »
RICES is the acronym for Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation and Stabilization — the doctor recommended protocol for treating typical sports-related injuries. No other method of treating sprains, strains and contusions is more effective than RICES. And, no other method is clinically proven to reduce recovery time by 60 percent.
